The opening scene of Se7en, Delicatessen and City of God

In 'se7en' the opening scene gives us a brief idea of the genre of the film, also the creepy sound at the background gives us a clear understanding of what we should expect and what we shouldn't. For example a horror/ thriller film or maybe even sci-fi you tend to see disturbing clips and scary background music, however that isn't always the case. We are introduced by flashing images such as pictures of peoples faces beeing coloured with a red colouring pen, the colour 'red' could suggest violent and blood. Also pictures being cut in a pacfic way, shows this person has planned carefully. However if this person did it in a rush and messy way you would think this person is not prepared and won't succeed. Also pictures being cut could symbolise death and torture One of his main target is to finish this hand made book, which contains several pictures and text written and collected by this person. This clearly shows how desperate and disturbed this person is planning every-step of his task. In my oppinion the target audience should be 15 and over as it has disturbing clips and also violent language, which isn't suitable for those under 15.

    ebi there needs to be a more extensive use of media terminology from shot sizes to focus to mise en scene, ensure that you are using the terms well every time you write - also ensure that you finish.
